FOR SALE—MISCELLANEOUS Cunwnaus Is Comne ‘The number of ladies who have thronged our house during the past week snd availed them- selves of our timely and seasonable reduction of ‘TEN PER CENT on all purchases of boys’ and children’s clothing, attest strongly the popu- larity of our methods. ‘They were loud in their ‘admiration of the beautiful styles and odd con- ceits to be found in our matchless stock. The pleasure we derived from the happiness to which ‘We contributed, and which they took pains to show, amply recompenses us for the loss we sus- tain financially, through our grest reduction of TEN PER CENT from marked prices on sil boys’ and children’s clothing. In our men’s department our strong point is our Superb Stosk of Overcosts. We have only space enough left to refer to two kinds im four colors. One is a West of England Kestey in brown and blue; both warranted fast; lined thronghont with the finest satin; reduced from $90 to $23.
